Herbed Turkey Stroganoff (2024)

Everyone loves a recipe that can be made in one pot, and this turkey stroganoff recipe fits the bill!

I love a classic stroganoff recipe and wanted to create a twist for leftover turkey (or even ground turkey)! Tender meat simmered in a seasoned sour cream sauce is perfect over egg noodles for a hearty meal.

One-Pot Perfection!

This quick dish saves time, energy, and kitchen cleanup! It’s a one-dish wonder that everyone loves.
It’s such a versatile dish, perfect for mixing in favorite ingredients, leftover veggies or swapping out turkey for ground turkey or even chicken.
It can be served over rice, potatoes, noodles, or even made on its own.

Ingredients and Variations

VEGETABLES With just a few veggies like onions and mushrooms add great savory flavor. Fresh mushrooms add rich flavor to the sauce when cooked.

MEAT This recipe can easily make use of leftover turkey either roasted or ground, or even meatballs. Of course, leftover chicken or rotisserie chicken work too.

EGG NOODLESEgg noodles are easy to find, but they are also fun and delicious when hand-made. This is also great over mashed potatoes or rice.

How to Make Turkey Stroganoff

Turkey Stroganoff is as easy to make as 1, 2, 3!

Soften butter in a large skillet, sauté mushrooms with aromatics (onions/garlic). Add add wine and reduce. Remove mixture from skillet.

Make the sauce in the same skillet by adding chicken broth to a bit of flour and butter.
Stir in remaining ingredients (per the recipe below) plus the mushrooms & simmer.

Remove stroganoff sauce from heat, stir in sour cream. Serve over noodles and enjoy!

Tips & Time Savers

Using leftover cooked turkey (or chicken) makes this recipe a real timesaver.
Canned mushroom soup can be used in place of fresh in a pinch.
When adding the mushrooms back to the sauce, be sure to include including the juices to add flavor!
Remove the sauce from the heat before adding sour cream. Sour cream can curdle if overheated.

Reheating Leftovers

Leftover turkey stroganoff will keep in the refrigerator, covered, for about 3 days.
Store the pasta separately and combine once reheated.

Leftover stroganoff can be frozen but freezes best without the sour cream. Sour cream will taste just fine once thawed but the texture can change very slightly.

Ingredients

▢ 1 small onion finely diced
▢ 3 tablespoons butter divided
▢ 8 ounces mushrooms sliced
▢ 3 cloves garlic minced
▢ ½ teaspoon fresh rosemary finely chopped
▢ ¼ cup white wine
▢ 2 tablespoons flour
▢ 1 cup chicken broth not low sodium

If you do not have leftover turkey, leftover chicken or ground turkey will work in this recipe. Brown ground turkey in a pan until no pink remains and drain juices before adding to the recipe.
